A blog about beer and/or advertising.

Let's call it "beervertising" for short.

That's not really all that short, but it's better than beer and/or advertising.

Proof that Awards Shows Mean Dick

List of Grammy winners in major categories


Rap Album: "Relapse," Eminem


Mos Def's The Ecstatic was up against Eminem's most recent pile of shit. Because award show judges wouldn't know an excellent rap album if it kicked them in the teeth, they follow airtime and record sales. Thus, you end up with shit albums like Relapse winning a Grammy rather than an original work of art, like The Ecstatic.

And yes, I have actually listened to Relapse. It's fucking awful. Boilerplate Eminem with slightly better beats than his last album. Not that I watch awards shows anymore, but that was pretty much then nail in the coffin.
